Ives FS45226D4 Kick Down Door Holder Solid Brass Satin Chrome

Product Description

The IVES FS45226D4 is a kick down door holder designed to hold doors open in a fixed position without wall- or floor-mounted stops. Constructed from solid brass with a satin chrome finish, this holder installs at the base of a door and deploys with a simple downward kick. The foot-activated latch engages the floor to keep the door stationary, then releases cleanly with a toe kick. At 0.4 pounds, the unit is lightweight without sacrificing durability. It suits commercial and residential applications where reliable, hands-free door holding is required and is installed by carpenters, finish contractors, and facility maintenance professionals.

The FS45226D4 is suited for interior door applications in commercial offices, institutional buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and residential settings. The satin chrome finish coordinates with standard architectural hardware in these environments. This holder is mounted to the face of the door near the base and requires no mortising. It is sold individually and is also available in case quantities of 10 units, making it a practical stocking item for contractors managing multi-door projects.
